  • Coleman Medallist
    Coleman Medal Student Activity 7 8 9 10 11 12 TI-Nspire™ Investigation Student 30 min Full Stop for Full Forwards The Coleman medal, named after John Coleman (Essendon 1949 to 1954) is awarded to the AFL player that kicks the most goals in a season. Coleman kicked 12 goals in his debut match and still mixes it with the best when it comes to the average number of goals kicked per game. Peter Hudson was the first Coleman medal recipient to kick more than 100 goals in a season (1968, 125 goals), he backed this up with 146 goals in 1970, 140 in 1971 and 105 in 1977. Since this amazing era, players such as Jason Dunstall, Tony Lockett and Gary Ablett (Snr) have collected multiple Coleman medals consisting of more than 100 goals in a season. More recently, recipients of the medal have kicked between 60 and 80 goals per season. Does this recent trend represent a ‘full stop’ for full forwards? Your task is to see if data supports the notion that the position of full forward is no longer as critical as it was in the 1970’s through to the 1990’s. Coleman Data Open the TI-nspire file “Full Forward Full Stop”. Navigate to page 1.2. Player Alphabetical listing Coleman Medallist. Team Team when medal was awarded. Year Year when medal was awarded.

    unity in diversity Annual Report 2014 Diversitat Refugee Photography Project This exhibition celebrated six remarkable individuals from refugee backgrounds that contribute greatly to the Geelong community through their work with Diversitat. They were from Sudanese, Iraqi, Karen(pictured), Ethiopian, Afghani(pictured) and Bosnian backgrounds and reflect the diversity of Geelong’s newly arrived and more established migrant communities. Their contributions to the organisation are highly valued as bi-lingual support workers, case managers, volunteers and as workers with Diversitat’s Property Services Social Enterprises. The skills, dedication and empathy they bring to their roles greatly assists the settlement process of individuals from Geelong’s newly arrived communities and provides the support they need to reach their full potential. These images were taken by internationally awarded photographer, Tobias Titz, as part of a project for 2014 World Refugee Day that aspired to share stories that are rarely told by mainstream media about the experiences of refugees. Tobias Titz is a freelance photographer based in Melbourne, Australia. Over the last ten years he has worked for a range of local and international magazines and commercial clients.
